    I know the likes of us fitters don't like scotia because we know it's a poor second choice to fitting under the skirting but I reckon a lot of customers don't mind it as long as it's well fitted and finished. If I were to do it in my home and had to use scotia I'd probably go for beading to match the skirting rather than the flooring.

    yep indeedy Oddz, gives off a bl00dy aweful smell bamboo & fUrkin killer on the blades... also weighs a fr33kin tonne...

    this job was on a top / 3rd floor apartment in a swanky apartment block in Oxford, for Doctor, living by themselves. so as a gesture of good will i kindly offered, a few weeks prev to install, to drive up from a job i was on in Henley OT & receive the delivery for her, kerbside drop-off as standard - this was before she told me she was on 3rd f00kin floor!!!! so after lumping 45pks of 2.2m lengths of the wonderfully dense & heavy bamboo upto the apartment I was well & truly destroyed, couldn't even drive the van, had to rest my bod for 30mins... then had to go back to Henley OT & whack in 25+ eng.!!!! hey ho... :cool:

    PS - to cap it all when i installed the flooring there last week she made me 1 cuppa in 3 days. wa'sat about ay...?
